Sew Mondays had a lot of fun making some green hearts this afternoon. An element of confusion crept in at some points, and we decided it was simply because today is Wednesday. Next dates: 21st Feb and 14th March. Jill Haslam Vanessa Wade-Coates Tina Hemmings Sue Curnow-Yates and Juliet Mattock Plans were laid for future projects and everyone took home their green heart to finish.

 And the Sports Trophy was won today in great style by Wendy Parr! Well done! Congratulations also to Sue England and Sparks Beattie who each got a Hole in One! What a great morning, lots of laughs and good company! Gail, Jean Bartlett, Tina Hemmings, Mary Williams, Lynn Asher
